Adobe does a LOT of crap when copying to the clipboard. Copy text from an OCR'd PDF sometime and paste it into a Livecode field. You may find the number of characters is more than are visible. This is what inspired me to write my cleanAscii function which filters out all chars before 32 and after 126.
